“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

As temperatures in various depths of ocean change, and as even the color of the water and of the flora and fauna change, so too in our value climate there are quality changes, and senses equipped to project and perceive the changes. There are distortions because of the limitations of the outer senses, but the inner senses¹ do not distort. The inner senses inhabit directly the atmosphere of our value climate; they see through the ever-varying camouflage (physical) patterns, and the flux and flow of apparent change. To some small degree in our sessions you plunge into this ocean of value climate, and to the extent that you are able to divest yourselves of the clothes of camouflage, you can be truly aware of this climate.

Your sexuality is a point of focus, and that is all. For those of you who need it said, I say it: A woman is as intellectual as a man. A man is as intuitive as a woman. You chose your sexual focus for a reason. The reason has more to do with the flexibility of consciousness than you presently understand. It has to do with the real nature of aggression and passivity,¹ which you have allowed yourselves to forget … Birth is an aggressive experience. Passivity is based upon the joyful recognition of natural aggression. To be carried along, each of you must be very sure of yourself. To allow yourself what is now, in your terms, a luxury of passivity, you must have confidence in the nature of your own reality and strength. Otherwise passivity frightens you to the core.

Think of your ideas about your own sexuality in connection with those about your being and consciousness. Regroup your ideas so that you automatically think of sexuality in relationship to your religions and sciences. You have associated the word “female” with the unconscious, while you have been working toward what you now think of as an egotistically based consciousness. There is more in what I am saying than you presently realize. You cannot, each of you, consider the real meaning of your own sexuality unless you understand your own religious history. Follow through, in your own minds, with your memories. Try to be honest with yourselves as to those early experiences in which you forced yourselves to behave differently than you were, because adults told you that you must … You had better understand the beautiful, unique quality of your own individuality lest you project upon the other sex — whichever sex you are — those abilities and qualities that you are afraid are your own, or project upon them those abilities and qualities that you wish you possessed and fear you do not.
